When you hold a checking or current account in your bank at a zero interest rate as most people do in advanced economies the real return is negative (the nominal zero return minus inflation) a year from now, your cash balances buy you less goods than they do today. And if you consider the fees that many banks impose on these accounts, the effective nominal return was already negative even before central banks went for negative nominal rates.

These resources continue to be threatened as our current patterns of consumption and production undermine the sustainability of the resource base upon which we depend.

Deflation is dangerous as it leads to a liquidity trap nominal policy rates cannot fall below zero, so monetary policy becomes ineffective. Falling prices mean that the real cost of capital is high and the real value of nominal debts rise, leading to further declines in consumption and investment and thus setting in motion a vicious circle in which incomes and jobs are squeezed further, aggravating the fall in demand and prices.

In Switzerland and Denmark, investors want exposure to a currency that is expected to appreciate in nominal terms. If you were holding Swiss franc assets at a negative nominal return right before its central bank abandoned its euro peg in mid January, you could have made a 20 return overnight a negative nominal return is a small price to pay for a large capital gain.

We are just beginning to appreciate the extent to which current patterns of industrial activity, including energy production and consumption, are unsustainable in terms of the three pillars of sustainable development, economically, socially and environmentally.

These countries had already lost export market shares to China and other low value added and labor intensive Asian economies. Then a decade of nominal wage growth that out paced productivity gains led to a rise in unit labor costs, real exchange rate appreciation, and large current account deficits.
